In our area 3x's the going rate. I would love to get more but we have so many people that will do it for even 2x's just to get the work that a higher rate for fly. As for scalping it is done in our area on Bermuda grass.

I ask because I have a customer that wants thatching on 2000sq ft. I quoted 180 and also talker her into aerating for an additional 75. Will be doing it Monday it weather allows. Just wanted to know if I was charging a fair price.
